St Patrick's Day Fundraiser
The St Patrick’s Day fundraiser was a huge success raising a total of $2103.80 from the Out of Uniform Day and bake sale. A big thank you to all the students, staff and parents who baked and donated sweet treats to be sold at the bake sale. A special thanks to all the students who helped serve on the day. And finally thank you to all the students and staff who bought cakes and dressed in green in support of the fundraiser.
Maddy George from Year 10 Jade:
Saint Patrick's Day in the CSYMA lounge was a massive success. We had hundreds of students visit the lounge to enjoy the music and games and purchase the many different biscuits and cakes that were on sale. The two Year 10 CSYMA groups worked really hard to make this day successful by making something to sell, dressing up in green for the occasion and most importantly spreading the word to others about why we were doing it, which is to raise as much money as we possibly can for Caritas. Overall the Saint Patrick's Day bake sale was lots of fun working alongside peers and feeling the sense of achievement when working behind the counter promoting Caritas.
CSYMA Lounge Update
This term the CSYMA lounge has been very busy, seeing over 100 members sign up. In particular, a large number of Year 7s who have put their hands up to get involved. Over this Lenten season students have undertaken many activities in the lounge including Stations of the Cross, where we learnt about each station and then had a bingo game to consolidate this new knowledge. Students helped decorate themselves and the lounge for St Patrick’s day making festive hats, shamrocks and leprechauns. We also celebrated International Women’s Day where everyone had the opportunity to write a card for a woman that inspires them, as well as many other exciting activities. It has been a chance for many students to get involved with the school and make friends from all year levels. I am excited to see what next term holds after such a great start.
